Dropping Bhuvneshwar Kumar in South Africa

England v India: 5th Investec Test - Day One
How Bhuvneshwar Kumar was not picked for the Centurion Test will remain a mystery

India went to South Africa at the start of 2018, with possibly their best chance to win a series there since their re-admission to international cricket. They might have lost the first Test match at Cape Town, but they did find a few new stars, one of whom was Bhuvneshwar Kumar.

The all-rounder claimed match figures of 7 for 120 with the ball and also contributed 25 important runs to steady the ship with Hardik Pandya in the first innings.

And yet, in the following match at Centurion, Kohli and co. found a reason to drop him and get Ishant Sharma in his place in the side. It was as a bizarre a call as you could think of.
